We are so fortunate to have this opportunity to participate in this traditional practice with a ritual drum\, bell and melodious chants to help us cut thru our deep fears\, emotions and self clinging for awakening to naturally dawn.  \n\n\n\nLimited primitive camping sites and outdoor facilities will be available – students should please bring their own camping equipment if possible.  Meals will be provided.  \n\n\n\nRegistration has now concluded.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nText Download\n\n\n\n\nGanges Mahamudra Text\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonations Appreciated\n\n\n\n\nWe are only able to offer Dharma programs like this because of your kindness and generosity.Please know that your donation brings great benefit to the entire Sangha. Thank you!
